“Residents at one apartment complex in Round Rock are dealing with busted pipes from the freezing weather.

“Some of those residents are refugees from Afghanistan and are dealing with this after escaping the Taliban.

“Multiple units at the Townhomes at Double Creek don't have water. Some flooded and still have water dripping.

“‘We need help to - new and good home. My mother, she can’t cook in this home, because this home is full of water. We need help,’ resident Qaribullah Shafir Khan said.

“His family fled Afghanistan when the Taliban took over.”
